Nursing has performed a work of great relevance in Primary Health Care, a fact that generates the need for a continuous and permanent process in training. In this scenario, Permanent Education in Health emerges as a strategy that enables better qualification for the improvement of Nursing actions in Primary Care. The objective was to identify the satisfaction of Nursing working in Primary Health Care with Permanent Education in a municipality in the state of Ceará. Descriptive study, with a quantitative approach, carried out in 2020 in a municipality in Ceará. For data collection, a validated questionnaire was used, which evaluates Continuing Health Education in the Family Health Strategy (IAEPS-ESF) in three sub-dimensions: 1- Continuing Health Education; 2-Organization of the Work Process; 3- Permanent education and qualification of health care teams. Data analysis was performed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences Software, version 22. 27 Nursing Technicians and 13 Nurses participated in the study. Overall, EPS was satisfactory for 35% of professionals. The evaluation of each sub-dimension showed the highest level of satisfaction, very satisfied, with sub-dimension 1 and 2, while sub-dimension 3 was regular. A significant number of Nurses, 46.1%, were satisfied with sub-dimension 2 and Nursing Technicians 51.9% were very satisfied. EPS must be continuously present in the work process, allowing the development of skills that provide professional practice consistent with the principles and guidelines of the Unified Health System.
